About Peter

BY ELIZABETH

We love basketball

Peter graduated college with a degree in Accounting. He worked as a tax accountant, but had always dreamed of becoming a Marine. After a few years, he decided to pursue his dream. Peter joined the U.S. Marines and spent one year on active duty. He then returned to his accounting career and spent 5 years in the Marine reserves where he worked as an airplane mechanic.

Peter pursued another dream of his—woodworking. He went back to school to obtain a degree in studio art and learned to make furniture. Peter is very artistic. He paints and plays piano. He also loves gardening and keeping our yard beautiful, doing most of our home repairs himself, and coaching our children’s soccer teams!

Peter loves his garden

He is a wonderful husband and father. He thinks more about his family than himself and always makes us laugh. He always sings when he first gets up in the morning. He is a very caring person who always looks after his parents, as well. One of the things that attracted me to Peter was how well he always treated his mother. I am proud to be his wife. He makes me a better person as his strengths complement my weaknesses.

Peter started out in the accounting field and has transitioned into the field of compliance. He is currently a compliance consultant for medical device companies. He has to make sure that all of the employees are following government and corporate rules and regulations. He likes this field very much. He is always learning new things, travels to different places, and meets all kinds of people.
